I'm new to this. Had my entire nose surgically removed on Nov 29, 2005 after 40 radiations sessions did not stop the cancer. I have been told I have to heal five months before I can get a prosthesis. I've been through the worst of it; doctors say they got all of the cancer in that area and chances of it coming back somewhere new are slim. So, at this point, I think I am a survivor. Would like to hear from others with same experiences; hopefully we could help each other. I had a major problem with vision since I need glasses to see well and had a problem holding them on my face. I have found a way to do it and would like to share that with anyone with the same problem.
